Lady to Queen
Ongoing | kim so hyun | 2019 released
Strong female lead, interesting plot, but incredibly boring and weak male love interest. For half of the story he acts like a cruel asshole, and in the second half he acts like a chastised child in need of mother's affection. I find their relationship kind of creepy for that reason. Imo the author did a terrible job setting up a romance between the two and making the male lead someone you can actually root for. I could barely make it through any chapter where the two had romantic interactions bc of how awkward and unbelievable it felt.
